Hopefully you’ve heard by now that G.1440 was just named one of Baltimore’s Best Places to Work.  We’re proud of this distinction – even if we already knew that G.1440 rocks!

Anyhow, I have a stunning revelation about Baltimore Magazine’s print edition of the article.  This is groundbreaking stuff that won’t be reported anywhere else… so hold on to your desk!

There’s a photo accompanying our article in the print version – take a look below:

That’s Bonnie Wilhelm, our distinguished CFO.  Bonnie’s the consummate professional, so at first, I was surprised that the photographer was able to talk her into the ‘feet on the desk’ pose – until I looked closer and realized that’s not her desk!

That’s right folks – Bonnie’s not relaxing in her office, she’s taking a call in Larry Fiorino’s office (our CEO). Wow.  Larry was probably filming his weekly segment on Fox 45, but maybe he’ll reconsider his “open door policy” now that he knows what goes on in there when he’s out!

I’m hoping that by now you’ve picked up on the sarcasm that I’m laying all over this exposé.  Bottom line is that I’m disappointed they didn’t go with the pictures they took of me…  I signed a release and everything!

Number 5 to be exact, and the only IT Development and Staffing firm mentioned.  Sweet!

Don’t get me wrong – ever since my first interview it was obvious that something was up at G.1440, but it’s nice to be acknowledged!  Now, thanks to Baltimore Magazine, everyone knows what we’ve known all along… G.1440 rocks!

The article highlighted our unique office and relaxing culture, two of the best things about G.1440.  But if you really want to get down to it, it’s the people that make G.1440 special.  It’s a CEO who laughs with you and can’t wait to say, “Great job!”  It’s an HR department that you walk by just to say, “Hi!”  And when it really comes down to it, it’s a team of people completely dedicated to winning.  Man, that fires me up!

Today’s a great example.  Almost every school district in MD is closed for snow/ice today, but a good chunk of G.1440’s team braved the weather to come in, and the rest planned ahead to work remotely and aren’t missing a beat.  And for those of us that did put our lives in the hands of a Toyota and an iron will, there were donuts and hot coffee waiting for us – just because one of our employees decided it would be nice.  How awesome is that?!

That’s what cements the deal for me: G.1440.  Officially one of the best!
